I have an old Nicolett NPC-764, which is CP/M machine
(8085 based) with
built in Logic Analyzer hardware (its main function). The logic analyzer
software was stored in 48K of ROM, and you could boot CP/M from there. Its
a "luggable" computer (which means that they put a handle on it and bolted
down all the boards ;-).
Sounds like my Gould K-450B. It's a heavy bastard! I was lucky, this
one came with a disk with the OS software. I've passed up several because
they didn't have the SW.
One thing I do not have is any 5 1/4" floppy disks
for it. Because of this, I can't boot CP/M and I
don't have any of the
software that came with the unit that assist in using some of the logic
analyzer's abilities. Do have any idea on how I could get some of this
software? Nicolet hasn't been any help.
Just keep putting want ads out in the test equipment news-groups. You
could also check with the used manual people. I found one that had manuals
and disks for the Gould but they wanted over $100 for both.
